Fatigue,headaches,severe Dizziness,falling Down a Lot

Please help me! If anyone has had the same symptoms as me, maybe you can help. For the last 7 years I have been having periods of very debillitating vertigo. It feels like I am drunk and more often than not, I fall down and get hurt. When this happens, I also get headaches. I have also been very fatigued over the last 7 years. I have had holter monitor tests and an mri, and the doctor just prescribed me some anti-depressant meds. I know I am not depressed! Other than the frustrations that come along with these symptoms, I have never been happier! My uncle has had the same complaints and they have never figured out what was wrong with him either. We both have severe kidney stone problems, but it doesn't seem like this is related. I have four children and I would like to know what this might be, and if I can pass this on. Any help would be welcome!

I don't have vertigo, but I am having somewhat similar symptoms. For about 10 months I have been getting headaches, lightheaded, I fall down-often! I fall about 3-4 times a day and it's increasing. I have muscle and joint pain in my legs. Have been tested for many different things, but none were the diagnosis for me. One doctor thought that depression caused all of this. I also know that I am not depressed, besides what has come from being 14 and having 10 months spent on caution and doctors, but it certainly did not cause it! I'm sorry that I dnn't have any personal answers for you, especially because at the moment i'm seeking my own.
Good luck!

Dizziness
Posted: 05-30-07 20:16pm

hello, I am a 29 year old and I started having problem with dizziness and falling down. Mine ended up being MS. Not saying you have MS, I have many other problems but that is something to look into. Also, have you had your enter ear checked out? Or your blood pressure?

I also was just diagnosed w/ benign positional vertigo and while it's not that bad, I am only 24 and looking forward to a life of having it re occur is not fun!

I think there are some surgeries for the more extreme cases.

Hi, I am 35 years old and have been dealing with episodes for the past 7 years of headaches behind the right eye, balled up muscle stiffness, difficutly walking fatigue, neurgenic bladder, dizziness. The summer of 2007 the dizziness has been so bad and I had a hard time staying awake the entire summer. I went to a neurologist which i told her my symptoms and she did a Brain MRI and discovered I have two leasions in the pons area of my brain and thats why i'm having such a hard time staying awake. The doctor put me on adderall to keep me awake. It seems to be working fine but, I'm still having issues of dizziness which can last every day, lasting for an hour to 8 hours a day and has been going on for almost a year now and doesn't seem to be going away. I do know that If I don't get enough rest, or I'm out in the cold it will bring on my other symptoms of balled up muscle stiffness.

The doctor is thinking of putting in the catagory of Mixed connective tissue disease for now. All I want is for the dizziness to stop. Has anyone had this problems? Especially the longs periods of dizziness? I have had my inner ear checked and Have been to an ENT Doc and they said everything was ok.
